Hi, I took awhile yesterday transcribing the lyrics to the songs off of Rather Ripped. I'm going to put them up on SongMeanings in a bit, but there are certain parts of lyrics that I can't quite make out. Here they are, if anyone can help with the blank spots, it would be appreciated. By the way, if this is violating any rules, say so, and I will delete this right away.
Sonic Youth - Reena [Kim] You keep me coming home again You keep me coming home again When you were gone, I met a friend She taught me how to live in the end You keep me coming home again You keep me coming home again Are her eyes bright or blue? How does she keep her (??) My heart and soul are rocked up in her eyes I will (not break?), yeah, I recognize I will (not break?), yeah, that's my (pride/prize?) A (wild horse?) in her (??) Hard to ignore, hard to disguise Will she ever realize? You keep me coming home again You keep me coming home again When you were gone, I was out in the night (??, no idea about the last verse) Sonic Youth - Incinerate [Thurston] I ripped your heart out from your chest Replaced it with a grenade blast Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate The firefighter (turns me down?) I don't care, I'll burn out anyhow It's (??), nothing to see Hear the sirens come for me You doused my soul with gasoline You flicked a match into my brain Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate The firefighters are so nice I remember you so cold as ice The flames are licking at your feet The sirens come to put me me out of misery You wave your torch into my eyes Flamethrower love will (burn at night?) Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Incinerate Sonic Youth - Do You Believe In Rapture? [Thurston] Stand behind his drunken (imp?) Stand behind his light of love Hear him yell his bloody tongue Hear him yell of blood and war Do you believe in his sweet sensation? Do you believe in second chance? Do you believe in rapture, babe? A terrible (hit/head?) strikes today A terrible (hit/head?) for the parade Burning eyes see Jesus coming Jesus comes to pave the way Do you believe in his sweet sensation? Do you believe in second chance? Do you believe in rapture, babe? Can you tell me what to feel? Open up your tender soul Can I drink your drunken mercy? Wine burns the devil's (hole/home?) Do you believe in his sweet sensation? Do you believe in second chance? Do you believe in rapture, babe? Sonic Youth - Sleepin Around [Thurston] Sleepin around, sleepin around What will the neighbors (see/say?) Sleepin around, all over town What will the neighbors (see/say?) What you did was wrong What (you did good is?) gone Nothing you do is right Always ends up in a fight Sleepin around, sleepin around What will the neighbors do? Sleepin around, all over town What will the neighbors do? What you did was wrong What (you did good is?) gone Nothing you do is right Always ends up in a fight Sleepin around, sleepin around What will the neighbors think? Sleepin around, all over town What will the neighbors think? What you did was wrong What (you did good is?) gone Nothing you do is right Always ends up in a fight Sonic Youth - What A Waste [Kim] Hey, give me hollow stimulation It's so sleazy to be free Let's invest in (dark?) creation Thrill city, cheap legacy What a waste (You're so chaste?) I can't wait, to taste your face (??) signals lead me to you A sublime, spectacular (dirt?) Safe and sound from the shattered confusion Get the picture? Yes, it's clear (??) What a waste (You're so chaste?) I can't wait, to taste your face Hey, give me hollow stimulation It's so sleazy to be free Let's invest in (dark?) creation Thrill city, cheap legacy? What a waste (You're so chaste?) I can't wait, to taste your face I wouldn't lead you on (??) You could of had it all, but you didn't call me Sonic Youth - Jams Run Free [Kim] Blasted earth (??) immersed Golden cave The blondes come first I love the way you move I hope it's not too late for me (It's all good on the sea?), where the light is green, where the light is green (??) Slow refrain We love the jams, and jams run free I love the way you move I hope it's not too late for me (It's all good on the sea?) where the light is green, where the light is green (??) Slow refrain Sonic Youth - Rats [Lee] When the rats run riot, and the screen door slams When the trees grow quiet, nothing but cats and cans When the breeze says "try it", but you can hardly see When your love (is/as?) dying, and you rat on me I see your eyes in the half-light, I see the number on your wall Endless strange things I see at night, you don't see anything at all Shine a light into your soul (See these/city?) streets so freezing cold (See these/city?) shadows mark the route, when they let the rats out Rats, you call it love alright That was the catch, a cold suicide Let me place you in my past, with other precious toys But if you're ever feeling low, down, in the fractured sunshine, I'll help you feel the noise Shine down, You can go on home Shine down Go, go Rats, you're working overtime You are the moon beyond your mind When the rats run riot, and the screen door slams When the world goes quiet, you'll all know where I am You could be my open road, you could be the reason why You could ease my heavy load I'm gonna freeze you up now You can let it shine, keep that in mind When they let 'em out next time You can move a little closer, until you're moving all up around my shoulder (See these/city?) shadows mark the route when they let the rats out Sonic Youth - Turquoise Boy [Person] ("Haha, OK, dog?") [Kim] Turquoise boy, I must confess to you, sweet liberation has come You are a legend in a lovely game, but now I feel I must run Turquoise boy, the sky is calling me Sweet isolation in the sun You are a soldier in a (??) How do you lose what's never found? Turquoise boy, I must confess to you, sweet liberation has come You are a legend in a lovely game, but now I feel I must run Sonic Youth - Lights Out lyrics [Thurston] She scans the room, for a star to consume When eye contact is made, I suggest, son, you fix your grave 'Cause it's lights out for you Lights out for you There's not a hell of a lot you can do It's lights out for you He rolls his eyes at the thought of paradise But when he makes that insect sound, then it's time, girl, for you to leave town 'Cause it's lights out for you Lights out for you There's not a hell of a lot you can do It's lights out for you She scans the room, for a star to consume When eye contact is made, I suggest, son, you fix your grave 'Cause it's lights out for you Lights out for you Lights out for you Lights out for you Lights out for you Lights out for you There's not a hell of a lot you can do It's lights out for you Sonic Youth - The Neutral [Kim] There's not a dreamer or a schemer running away from me There's not a singer, an entertainer with no follow-through There's not a poet or a mystic with a (??) He's just neutral, yeah, he's weary Not even brand new It's a perfect sin Close your eyes and lose the rest It's a perfect sin Close your mind and feel the best Everyone has a headache, imprecise, hard to cure Gotta shake it, what ails you The lines are blurred Is it a pain in your heart? Dark and grey from the start You won't seduce me or attract me, just 'cause you're (??)

Best I can tell from Flywheel:
Sonic Youth - Do You Believe In Rapture? [Thurston] Stand behind his drunken amp Stand behind his light of love Hear him yell his bloody tongue Hear him yell of blood and war Do you believe in his sweet sensation? Do you believe in second chance? Do you believe in rapture, babe? A terrible hit strikes today A terrible hit for the parade Burning eyes see Jesus coming Jesus comes to pave the way Do you believe in his sweet sensation? Do you believe in second chance? Do you believe in rapture, babe? Can you tell me what to feel? Open up your tender soul Can I drink your drunken mercy? Wine burns the devil's home Do you believe in his sweet sensation? Do you believe in second chance? Do you believe in rapture, babe? Sonic Youth - Pink Steam [Thurston] I just come by to run you over I just come by to see you quiver You can come, you can slip inside, babe Killer eyes and a burning heart, babe Don't you know you need no other I'm the man who loves you mother Open up your arms to me, girl Let me feel your wild heart beat, girl Sweet lips, flowers and cream Deep in love, surrender pink steam Deep in love, you need no other Deep in love, your lonely lover I feel your wild heart beat Lonely lover Open up to me Lonely mother Your sweet lips are mine like flowers and cream Killer, killer eyes surrender pink steam *Of course, the lyrics may have changed...but Pink Steam sounds like less of an incest song this way. "...loves you mother" is the correct lyric from Flywheel*

And from Sonic Mirror, it's clear that it's "What will the neighbors say?" both times. The other line is too buried.

Stop reading the thread. The contents are explicitly described in the title. I'm not in possession of the album, but the lyrics aren't going to spoil anything for me. Hell, reviews don't spoil anything for me. It's not like giving away the end of Fight Club...music is appreciated differently by everyone. Especially us, the SY fans. And if Chris L. is in the thread, I have no problem helping.

My God, some of you people are whiney fucking babies!! What the hell is yr problem??!! It's just lyrics people!!!! You all need to pull yr heads out of yr asses!! Ridiculous they way some of you react to ripoped music or leaked lyrics. "Oh my God! Someone put the album up on the internet before the album premiered and lyrics are up somewhere to! The world is coming to an end! Boo hoo!" Grow the fuck up! There is so much more that we all need to occupy our time with than downloading free music, like trying to get Bush out of office, fixing our economy, reasonably ending the war in Iraq and fixing what we've fucked up there, immigration reform, preventing drug smugglers from bringing in more illegal drugs into this country, and curing the world of religious/ethnic/racial intolerance, education reform, geting America's gang violence under control..........do you see where I'm going with this? So quit acting like little bitches!!!!
